About Me
My first priority is cultivating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly seen and heard. I take a warmly curious stance that helps us both to gain better understanding of your unique experience, beliefs, and values. Therapy is a collaborative partnership, and we will work together towards goals that are meaningful for you. My work often involves helping clients increase self-acceptance, develop self-regulation skills, overcome fear/avoidance, and live more authentic, fulfilling lives. I absolutely love helping people shake off the shackles of “I should” and move towards what they truly want and need for themselves.
More About My Practice
I take an integrative, person-centered, and trauma-informed approach to treatment that emphasizes client autonomy. I draw on a variety of evidence-based interventions, with foundations in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), learning theory, and mindfulness.
My approach prioritizes identifying and altering patterns that are impacting your day-to-day life right now, however, it is often helpful to understand how these patterns developed and were reinforced over time. Once we can accept our past, we are better able to fully experience the present.
My Specialties
I work with adults providing individual therapy for a range of mental health concerns, and I lead therapy groups for ADHD and executive dysfunction. I have a generalist background and have experience working with clients across the lifespan who are dealing with a variety of challenges. I specialize in working with individuals seeking therapy for ADHD, stress and anxiety, procrastination, low self-esteem, identity development, and relationship concerns.
